if you follow me on instagram, you already know david and i have been working on a special video project lately. and here it is, the result of our collaboration with non other than our brilliant sponsor ACER !

we’re joining their #daretobeswift campaign, for the new ultra-thin laptop ACER swift 7 – which isn’t just thin, but actually the thinnest laptop in the world.

for the campaign, ACER asked us to create a video about striving for betterment and pushing yourself. we had coincidentally already planned to make a video about reaching your goals and believing in yourself, so this collab definitely seemed meant to be ^.^

let’s take a look !

what did you guys think of this new kind of video ?
whenever we post a column here in the blog, it’s always really popular, so we thought we’d try the column in video format. hope you enjoyed watching just as much as we enjoyed making it. also i hope it encouraged you to believe in yourself and your potential. daring to dream isn’t easy. it’s risky and scary. but who wants to live risk-free and boringly safe anyway ?

when we were shooting the video, i took the opportunity to match my outfit to our new stylish laptop friend ( scroll down for pics ). gold and black, you can’t really go wrong with that. i really appreciate when your tech has some serious design and style thoughts put into it. isn’t it more fun to work hard when your equipment is totally instagram-worthy ? anything to have an excuse to take a little flatlay-pic-break from work huh ?

BEAUTIFUL…LOVE ALL YOUR VIDEOS! VERY CLASSY & NEAT. I LIKE THE WAY YOU & DAVID SET THINGS UP. REALLY INSPIRES ME A LOT. WE HAVE THE SAME TASTE WHEN IT COMES TO FASHION ESPECIALLY THE COLORS (I’M INTO BLACK, BLUE, WHITE & GRAY), FOOD & MINIMALISM. I’M NOT VEGAN BUT WHO KNOWS IN THE FUTURE.

It’s been 2 weeks that I am looking at your video, almost every days ^^.
I am french and I just finish my school of art Emile Cohl in Lyon, 7 months ago. I am naturaly a dreamer and I try things that nobody around me knows about. I am doing traditional 2D animation, as Disney you know? And I have been through so much of difficulties.. I am still in a difficult situation right now, but I am pushing myself everyday though.
Thank you so much for having daring believes in yourself. In a time when I need inspiration to begin a new life that I dream of. I needed your videos and your personality. Thank you for all the sufering you have been through it worth it for me.

I loved this video so much. It gave me some power to go on, make my dreams true. I have goals, other kind of, not like being a lawyer, having 2 kids and find a husband. I would like to a have a successful carrier with fashion and art. I know this will be fucking hard as fuck (sorry) but I will make my own business with clothes, blogging, being a curator. Thanks for giving me power and inspiration not to give up. Sometimes I fell I can’t do it and I hate it.
